My Sister's House

The story behind My Sister's House

In the fall of 2003, Becky Coleman to a personal retreat to menucha in Corbett, OR. One morning, well before dawn, God gave her a vision of a home for woman and children in transition. She got up and prepared for her morning jog, knowing it was still dark outside. she asked "God, if this vision is truely from You, and I believe it is, bring me back from this jog and I will run with it to make it a reality." God confirmed her vision, and He has been faithful to point her in the right direction. Her vision became a reality when My Sister's House opened it's doors in the fall of 2004.
